Just when I think we can't get any more Amazing Artifacts... we get some one-of-a-kind Donations.
Starting with Tappan Glassware from the Hetler Family, then a Westing house porcelain waffle maker & Blue Roaster with Pyrex Dishes from the Bader Family, the Hunt Family sent an old Dominion Toaster from VA, the Grech Family from NJ, sent a 1927 Richland Tire made by Mansfield Tire & Rubber(I just saw a Hoffman Family Member Yesterday!) and yesterday, NCOIM received an awesome Collection from the Vinson Family, the Founders of Ideal Electric Company
Thank You!

Very nice✌️
Just one Big Mistake...
Since 1891, when the Tuby began in Shelby & in 1912, the Mansfield Sheet and Tin Plate Company, our 2 steel mill factories are still here🇺🇸

Thank you, Lou Whitmire for a wonderful story...
Just one correction... the Westinghouse marquis is a Replica. The original sits waiting to be rebuilt & displayed; maybe in time for the WestingHOUSE Party on 13June

Check out this story from Mansfield News Journal: Industrial museum shows accomplishments of local industry and people

Jerry Miller, NCOIM president, has bought local industrial artifacts and had items donated. He is always looking to grow the museum.

This weekend at the Ohio State Reformatory is the Ohio Haunt Association... pretty cool exhibits, you gotta make it out there

Also, Rodney Rock, now of NC, delivered on his promise, and Donated a beautiful blue Borg-Warner Humphryes Division, blue sink and chrome faucet, still in the boxes!
Bonus, his wife Sherry went to Prospect-Appleseed-Malabar with me

If you remember, Jason & FOUNDATION ROBOTICs bought one of the Elektro The Robot at "Shot" auction #12 and Donated to NCOIM!

We hope you enjoy this Well Researched and Locally Produced Video History of Elektro The Robot, NOT AI!
